Mom and Will day

-
On Friday Will and I had the place to ourselves. Finn and Sam went to spend the night with Gran and Michael went to a men's retreat with our church.  By 4:00 the house was empty, so I decided that I wanted to get in some snuggles with Will.  Will did not want to snuggles.  He would rather that let him jump on my thighs while holding his waist.  He hadn't napped all day so we was really fussy and weepy. I decided to assert my authority and made him snuggle with me.  After about 20 minutes of fussing and pushing, he gave up and took a nap. We sat and rocked for two hours.


After he woke up we went into Gallatin to do a home visit for one of my cases.  It is always nerve racking taking your sweet little baby into a strange home.  But if figured if Finn and Sam could do it - so would Will.  We had a pleasant visit, and other than reeking of cigarette smoke, he came out no worse for wear.

Next we went straight back home and played until bed time.  Will practiced pulling up and taking little steps.  





Then he found my dinner plate and sat in it. We had such a fun night. 


Despite his long nap he cuddled up and went straight to sleep with his lion.  

At 1:30 in the morning, I got a call from Michael asking me to unlock the door.  It scared me a little so I ran into the garage and let him in.  He told me that he came home to get some sleep because one of the guys in his bunk was snoring and his bed was missing a slat.  I told my friend Elena the next day and she said, "Michael is such a diva."

Today we woke up at 6:30 to prepare for our big day at Universal Studios Islands of Adventure. The shuttle from the hotel left for the park at 8:00 meaning that we had to be downstairs and ready to go at 7:45. At 7:30 we realized that we had to book our spot on the shuttle the night before. Oops. For two people with jobs requiring close attention to detail we completely fall apart in our personal life. Fortunately we were able to purchase a ticket and catch the 8:00 shuttle anyway. The shuttle ride was interesting; we ended up sitting behind a young couple that could have left about 90% of their PDA in their hotel room and it still would have been too much for my taste. When we got to the park we noticed our ticket required that we show I.D. Well, I didn't bring my purse with me. Oops. After reading and rereading the fine print, we lawyerly types figured out an interpretation that would allow me to get into the park without producing photo i.d. We geared up for the fight

Wednesday night I got a strange phone call from Michael; he asked if I could get an ice pack and a couple ibuprofen ready for him.  Check it out . . .   He went to the doctor Thursday morning and came home with a boot, a pressure sock and a pair of crutches.  Looks like he will be out of commission for approximately two months.

On Sunday morning we slept until 9:30!  Finn was up with the sun, of course, but Sam slept until a little after 9:00. When we got up the sun was shining so we decided to hang the boys gourd bird house from Mr. Gene.  So far we have really enjoyed going to church on Sunday night.  Finn specifically told me that he likes night church better because he can get up and play.  The boys had a pajama party at school today.  It was in honor of Ms. Jenn's last day before maternity leave.  Finn was very excited to show his friends his godzilla feet. Big morning for Finn.  Last night was the first night that we have not put a nighttime pull-up on Finn.  He woke up with a dry bed!
